I took a little trip the other day. One I have taken many times in my life. The difference now, is that I can only take it in my mind of memories. I’m talking about a visit to my past and my grandparents’ farm.

In 1988, “Lamb Chop’s Sing-Along, Play-Along” unveiled a four-line chorus, and just by those few words alone, you might already be experiencing hives, a rash or eye twitching from the memories spilling back into your head. “The Song That Never Ends” was something kids sang on repeat, because, as the title says, it’s the song that never ends.

When I was growing up near Elkland in the Eisenhower and Kennedy years, most fair weather days would find old men in overalls sitting on a bench in front of the Elkland MFA Exchange, some for a few minutes, some for much of the morning.

Well, I guess you wonder what happened to the crowd of C.B.er’s. They say the Buzzard finally talked Morning Glory in to marrying him. Rag Doll was her maid of honor and I told you Rag Doll said she was keeping her eye on the 49er. Next thing you know, Rag Doll and the 49er were getting married and they all made babies. Buzzard and Morning Glory were 49er and Rag Dolls best man and maiden of honor. Oh, did I mention that the old Bee had big fat 50’s on the back, Mickey Thompson’s that is with Crager Wheels. The young Buzzard thought it was cool. All these guys and gals hung out with him because he was like a dork fish. Somewhere between throwing cow pies and bottle rocket fights.

In 2010, we bought a Prius. Although it was a really good car, with excellent gas milage, it was low to the ground. We didn’t dare drive it through a deep snow, because, we figured, it would bottom-out. Then in 2020, we traded for another Prius. It is a little higher off the ground, thus it would be better in the snow. It is also an all-wheel drive.
